A Camry XLE V6 will be over $33K w/NAV.

i was talking about cars UNDER $30K because a Honda or Toyota for Over $30K is Ludicrous plus i was comparing prices on their companies website, ofcourse a car a dealership will cost more because you don't know what add'tl pkgs they primp up their cars. Comparing prices on the Honda.com vs Toyota.com is a more accurate assessment then a dealer pricing..
The NAV Camry allotment to my area must have certain options too.
Both Honda and Toyota price their Accords and Camry models very close to each other.
Honda models come 3-4 ways(EX,EX-L,EX-L w/NAV)with no options except for dealer accessory installs.
I agree on the over $30k number.
Both the Camry and Accord are discounted very well here,though.The Camry $250-$500 over invoice with haggling.The Accord invoice and maybe under with the new design coming in '13.

Have you been INSIDE a Honda lately? Materials are really cheap now and alot worst than before, IMO cheaper materials than other brands for similiar pricing, and if you check Honda's are pricer.
Go on Honda.com and Build a Civic EX-L Loaded $24,395 and then go to Toyota.com and build a comparable car the Corolla LE Loaded $20,785..
The Accord EX-L which is their car right under $30K is price at $28,445 vs the comparable Toyota Camry LE with Leather is $25,334..
I suggest you price shop and get an understanding of where pricing is instead of speculating what you think.. yeah, the cars is in the same price range but like i said the Honda's are the PRICEST of this car class.. When you POST, have proof instead of speculating.. Thanx Good day!

Oh, by the way, yes, I've been inside Hondas, I'm currently driving my 13th so Don't tell me I don't have experience with Honda value, quality, reliability and resale value, I am the 99%. The materials used in the Accord have always been a notch above its competition, except possibly, the 1992 Camry. Hondas pricing amongst all of their cars is competitive to their competition, they are in no way "pricier". Get *your* facts straight. There's a very legitimate reason why Accord has the highest resale value in its class and has been named C&D 10 best 26 times. That's more accolades than any other car in history. They must be doing something right.

Guys knock off the personal commentary and keep this thread about the vehicles, not the people posting in the thread.

Honda's designs may suck as hell (outside of the Accord coupe), but their reputation for reliability and quality are unquestioned.
And their high resale value is easily seen if you just browse around the different car brand websites and check out the certified used cars prices. Honda's used cars are ridiculously expensive. You might as well buy brand new.

This has been talked about at Tier 1 forums for years. When you have a Tier 3 brand selling at a much lower price point it will retain its value better. An AMG S65 at 180k drops to 130k after a year. etc etc A 26k ILX that drops to 22k after a year will "retain value better". Its not rocket science.
Yall might want to do a IP check on the O.P from Acura in Marysville, Ohio

Honda, despite making some styling and cost-cutting goofs lately (I think most of us can agree on that) hasn't had the negative-reporting in the press that Toyota has. All of that negative reporting on Toyota and Lexus, whether it was justified or not (I myself have mixed-feelings on that issue) obviously hasn't helped their resale-values any.

Actually,I buy from that Toyota dealer and those numbers are sticker number.
The NAV Camry allotment to my area must have certain options too.
Both Honda and Toyota price their Accords and Camry models very close to each other.
Honda models come 3-4 ways(EX,EX-L,EX-L w/NAV)with no options except for dealer accessory installs.
I agree on the over $30k number.
